What are you most proud of, and what would you do differently next time?
I'm proud of myself for being patient while going through this first project. I ended up pivoting with how I wrote some of my HTML or CSS, even though it probably would've been better had I outlined my thought process first before delving straight into HTML. In other words putting together some pseudocode even for HTML and CSS to figure out the structure of both, including what types of CSS classes I could use based on the BEM convention.
What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?
The biggest challenges I faced were trying my hand at importing fonts differently than how I was used to, which was by using the @import at-rule and I would always use Google Fonts. I wanted to try to use the files provided within the project, but didn't have a lot of familiarity with the @font-face at-rule and during the first deployment, the fonts were not pulled in properly. I had to figure out the source of the error, and in the process I decided to try out variable fonts, as it was also new to me and I wanted to see if it a worthwhile solution.
